Sea Islands Part 1: Revisit Zoning Classification Densities & Heights

If I were Mayor: I would ask City Planning Department staff to Revise the City’s “Century V City Plan” (comprehensive plan) to lower densities in zoning classifications on James and Johns Islands. I would also ask that heights be lowered for new construction on the sea islands. I would put a moratorium on the building of multi-family apartment complexes on the sea islands. I would eliminate the Gathering Place zoning from the sea islands, which has no maximum density and has been controversial and rejected by islanders. I would value and respect the sea islands and promote ways to preserve and protect them.
